Lots of things.

Explanation:

The body is made up of many different things, but here is the general breakdown that is often used (as the number increases, the smaller we are getting in subdivisions):

  1. Human body
  2. Organ systems
  3. Organs
  4. Tissue (cellular tissue)
  5. Cells

This is the general breakdown you will see in many anatomy classes. But the truth is, there is also bones to consider, which are made so strong by the #Ca_3(PO_4)_2# bonds that comprise them. The short answer is "cells," but, in reality, the human body is very complex and has many components, all of which cannot be summarized into one word.

I hope that helps!
